"I think it's a tragedy," said the married mother of two, who is a graduate of Yale University and Fordham University Law School.

I'll bet she was Dean's List, too. I'm getting the feeling that Ivy League schools exist only for the elites to expand their Rolodex's.

Judging by the collective performance of our "best and brightest", it's past time that an Ivy League diploma be a disqualifier on one's resume. Governor Palin was sneered at because she graduated from Idaho.

During my four years in college, I routinely competed with students from Idaho in smallbore rifle competition. To a one, they were as intelligent, if not moreso, than anyone I've seen graduating from an Ivy League school.

Andrew Ladhe didn’t seem to think much of the Ivy League grads either. If you haven’t read his opus yet, check it out here:

He loses his focus a bit at the end but it was still a good read.
